How much electronics experience do you have, soldering and such?

Just enough to get me in trouble as far as that goes..no problem
soldering up a mic connector as long as I have the pin out.

I almost forgot to ask which antenna's you run, Frank?

A wire in the trees (Voobner was right, just throw a couple wires in
the trees and use a tuner -- works great). I had an A99 but it got
nuked by lightning. I've got a CCD in the attic but haven't hooked it
up for a while. Next spring I plan on building a new mast and hoisting
a vertical CCD just for experimentation.

Aren't you running one of Jay's contraptions?

Good answer

Oh yeah Voob

I'm running the interceptor for a ground plane 37' off the ground, is that
what you call a contraption? It seems to work well.

Then I have the flatside yagi 80' away from it but it's only about 32' up.
It smokes most antenna's for dx usually, but not always.

Reckon what voobner would use?
